I was not attempting to be inspiring -- I was providing (in accordance with your request) what Ms. Palin should have talked about. As I pointed out before, she made no attempt to address the issues she wants us to "engage."

Don't you think it's about time for her to stop with the bumperstickerism -- which in her case is just more of the same ol' same ol'? She has aspirations of leadership, and you have aspirations of following her. Don't you think it's about time she stepped up to showing real leadership, which includes actual command of the issues?

You apparently have very low standards. I do not, which is why I don't have much patience for Sarah Palin right now.

We have plenty of professional pundits who can give us an analysis of the facts of the health care bills. We need leadership. The history of democracies has shown over (Wilson) and over (Carter) and over (Obama) that academics and writers are not what America needs to be successful. It needs leaders of action.

As I pointed out before, she made no attempt to address the issues she wants us to "engage."

Then why is her simple, uninspiring comment driving the news cycle? Her 'Death Panel' remark is making rationing the story of this debate. It could well cost the Democarats the senior vote.

Don't you think it's about time for her to stop with the bumperstickerism -- which in her case is just more of the same ol' same ol'?

Now you sound like the democrats complaining for eight years that Reagan was simple and senile while he cleaned their clocks. How many bumper stickerisms did Reagen give us?

Don't you think it's about time she stepped up to showing real leadership, which includes actual command of the issues?

She seems to have a very firm grasp of cut spending, limit government and protect national soveregnty. Picking apart line items and nuance is what congress should do. National leaders should be able to articulate ideas to the masses, such as 'this entire package is unconstitutional.'

You apparently have very low standards. I do not, which is why I don't have much patience for Sarah Palin right now.

Snobbery does not win elections. You don't have to like for the woman. She's not even running for anything. But you taking cheap shots at her doesn't mean I have low standards, it means you have an axe to grind.
